Rebirth Of The Duke's Daughter

Chapter 157

Grunting, she could feel her old wounds like it could reopen any second from now. "So, it seems as though the rumors about you were true." The sorcerer walked in front of Mila who looked up, feeling blood trail down to one of her eyes from her new head injury. "You managed to cure the scar on your face which seems to have completely disappeared. Yet, you are still someone with no mana since the day of your birth." The sorcerer looked down to see that Mila was rather weak with no idea or assumption that she was the woman who led 'The Messenger of Beasts'.

"What more do you want from me? You can kill me now that you've found me." Mila felt as though there was no need for her in the Mireraweth kingdom. "I am after all a criminal since my father was convicted as one." Mila laid back down hitting the wall behind her as she smiled looking down to see that it may be her last stand. 'I wonder why I continue to mess up in such situations like these.'

The sorcerer did not sense any mana in Mila who was rumored to have no mana as they say it. He wanted a thorough check since he did not want to doubt anything about the woman of the Noble family. "I wish it were that easy, but the emperor wishes to still use you. After all, you are the Zameth heir's future wife."

Hearing that, Mila looked up shocked since she had no idea about this matter at all. 'There is no way that could be possible.' Hearing what the sorcerer tell her, it just all felt like a lie. She was to be wedded to the Zameth Heir this entire time, this was small information that she had overlooked. "T-That's a lie." Mila said, coughing out blood next and looking down to the ground with her vision blurring. 'Damn... it. Not yet. I... need... answers.' Knowing that she would not get the full detail at this moment. 'Hersilia, mother is sorry that she won't be with you and your father yet.' Mila said, fainting after from all the pain hitting her all at once.

"It seems as though your father didn't even tell you about this matter." The sorcerer saw Mila fall unconscious, continuing to speak his mind. "Now that you know, it would be best to tend your wounds so that the emperor can meet you. Then, you can just sit in luxury until the Zameth Heir decides to take his throne which he is apparently thinking about at this moment." The sorcerer had Mila taken since he was ordered to find her alive from the beginning. Mila was glad that Grace had sealed her mana for the time being, not allowing anyone to sense a single amount of mana in her.

Being dragged away, Mila knew that she was now in their territory and clutch. She had to be cautious, but the good thing was that her child was not in their hands to use and threaten her with. The sorcerer had sent his comrades to find the person that Mila was with since they knew that a woman like her would not be alone in the forest.

Noah and Theo had been looking endlessly for Mila who was still not found anywhere even though Noah was following the unknown mana still flowing to him. They both sighed, feeling exhausted with the few men of theirs that stuck close to them on their travels. "Where could Mila be?" Theo said, hitting the ground with his bottom as he stared up.

"Well, we are after all looking at the edge of Mireraweth kingdom's territory, so she could possibly still be in the town." Noah thought feeling as though that was the case, but at the same time it was not.

"You really think she would stay in the town that had her enemies left and right. Lady Mila would have never wanted to go back and harm her and Ambrose's child!" Theo said, angrily seeing how Noah had that thought. 'I wonder how our mind works. I do not even understand how we got stuck together.' Theo pushed his glasses back, knowing that he should not be getting worked up about this.

"..." Noah paused and smiled seeing how Theo was thinking very carefully and had been observing Mila for quite some time to know what she had been thinking or what she would avoid. "You've been getting more and more observant." He smirked looking at Theo who felt like it wasn't a compliment, but more of a joke.
